        Men like boobies?

        (You’d think that would mean we want to protect them, but naw.)

        At least she initially gave the wife the courtesy of a quick, painless deletion. Damn that’s cold, and yet, still on brand for The Janeway.

    If they made it home after taking battlefield wounds to their face and head, they’re pretty much immune to physical damage already.

    Just make sure they stay hydrated and appropriately fed so they can continue their carnage.

    I will note that the ankles are surprisingly absent from the picture, and it’s giving me [REDACTED] vibes.

      Actually this reminded me of a documentary or something I’ve read a while back.

      The leading cause of death in armies has long been infectious diseases, not combat injuries.

      Poor sanitation, overcrowded camps, contaminated water, malnutrition - this all lead to massive outbreaks of disentery, typhoid, pneumonia, malaria, etc etc, that caused more casualties than actual combat, depending on campaign conditions.

        Yeah it took advancements in logistics and civics in order to field larger armies. The concept of total war didn’t really exist until WWI. Maybe the Mongolia.

    I hate that it still makes sense when you say it like that and I read it as I’m waking up and still half a sleep.
